Geocache Description:


a series of caches along a lovely six mile walk taking around three hours, complete with meadows, pubs, barns, views, old railways and stepping stones

series can also be done on mountain bike, all but one of the caches can be accessed from cycleable trails, Anoraknophobia2 being the exception. this cache hence does not contain a clue to the final cache. See photos for suggested routes by foot or bike, I tend to do the cycle route in reverse order to best appreciate the descents...

contains clue H for final bonus cache

Yorkshire Dales Railway

"The railway company was authorised by Act of Parliament dated 6 August 1897  The first sod was cut on 7 June 1900 and the single-track line was opened to traffic on 29 July 1902. It was operated by the Midland Railway 

The station at Grassington & Threshfield was built 0.5 miles short of Grassington itself, thereby saving the cost of having to cross the River Wharfe. Regular passenger services ceased on 22 September 1930, but freight and occasional excursion trains continued until 11 August 1969. the line was then cut back to Swinden Quarry and it focussed strictly on sending out limestone"
